6 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي (رحمه الله) تَعَالَى عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) إِنِّي كُنْتُ بِالْحَائِرِ لَيْلَةَ عَرَفَةَ وَ كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي وَ ثَمَّ نَحْوٌ مِنْ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفاً مِنَ النَّاسِ جَمِيلَةٍ وُجُوهُهُمْ طَيِّبَةٍ رَوَائِحُهُمْ- وَ أَقْبَلُوا يُصَلُّونَ اللَّيْلَةَ [اللَّيْلَ] أَجْمَعَ فَلَمَّا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ سَجَدْتُ ثُمَّ رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَلَمْ أَرَ مِنْهُمْ أَحَداً- فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) إِنَّهُ مَرَّ بِالْحُسَيْنِ (ع) خَمْسُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ وَ هُوَ يُقْتَلُ فَعَرَجُوا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى إِلَيْهِمْ مَرَرْتُمْ بِابْنِ حَبِيبِي وَ هُوَ يُقْتَلُ فَلَمْ تَنْصُرُوهُ فَاهْبِطُوا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَاسْكُنُوا عِنْدَ قَبْرِهِ شُعْثاً غُبْراً إِلَى يَوْمِ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ
6. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from some of his companions, from Aḥmad ibn Qutaybah Al-Hamdāni, from Isḥāq ibn ‘Ammār, who said: I said to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)): On the night of ‘Arafah, I was in Ḥā`ir praying. I saw close to fifty thousand handsome men who smelled beautiful and who were praying Salāt all night. It was after dawn that I prostrated and when I raised my head, I could not see any of them. Abū ‘Abdillāh (a.s.) said to me: Fifty thousand angels passed by Ḥusain (a.s.) while he was being killed so they ascended to the heavens. Allāh, the Exalted, revealed to them, “You passed by the son of My love and he was being killed but you did not help him. Descend to the earth and dwell near his grave while you are disheveled and covered with dust until the rising of the Hour.”
